The Wall is a loving place
...a healing place
where America comes to bare her soul;
to lay before you,
her wounded bodies, hurting hearts,
tormented minds and broken spirits. The Wall is a gathering place
to embrace you once more;
to touch you and feel your presence;
to hold fast to the memories,
throughout eternity.
The Wall is a tribute to you;
a sacred place of Honor.
...A home for thanksgiving
for you and your memory.
The Wall is a hiding place
where America comes...
to bury her shame
and to humble herself
in your forgiveness.
The wall is a leaving place
where we leave you...
with our love always;
...with our eternal thanks;
and...with the emptiness in our hearts
that only you could fill.
